The Gaming Den

Double Post. I made a list of 10 possibilities for Thief cards. - Pickpocket oExhaust to draw a Treasure Card - Climb Walls o+2 dice on Stealth checks, and +1 more for each other Thief skill you have. - Assassinate oYou can use Stealth for a Stabination/Fight check, and get +1 die on that check. - A...

So, if it were the beginning of the game, and I saw a Beast card (the 2nd article on the monster list) and said "I'm gonna stab it!", I'd roll my 3 dice. If any of them came up as 5+, I'd beat the thing and take a treasure.

Yes?

Erm. I like the first feat. It's nice... especially the whole "2 caster levels behind" thing as a Sorcerer. If you always factor in ASF (regardless of your chosen spell list) from armor and such, the feat should be fine... even weak, like Hicks says. This would basically be used for buffs...

I have absolutely no idea how to play this game.

Can someone explain it in a couple paragraphs? I don't understand the dice mechanic or the cards or anything at all really...

What I'm getting form this is the following (concerning game balance): a) acid and fire damage = electricity damage b) Tongues = Speak with Animals c) Protection From Evil = minor movement speed bonus = Lay on Hands, and all of those are weaker than the toned-down Aura of Menace you've got. I disagr...

On page 1 of this thread, SunTzuWarmaster converted the Product of Infernal Dalliance feat to Product of Celestial Dalliance pretty much unchanged. As a result, at first level anyone can get the [Angel] subtype. Doesn't this seem a mite overpowered, as that grants a permanent Lesser Globe of Invuln...

Prak, so can being a snarky jerk online. :p The solution to this issue is so patently obvious (discuss calmly with DM or leave game), and similar issues have been discussed so many times previously on every D&D message board in existence that I didn't feel it warranted a sympathetic response. I...

You needed to declare the use of your immediate action before the attack roll was made. Then it would apply. You cannot take an immediate action during the middle of a multstage stage single action. I.E. the attack roll and damage roll are "one thing". You can act before it or after it bu...

I do love my Seattle

I'm looking into:
Journalism, Biochemistry-related degrees (too many goddamn names for them), architecture, management, and psychobiology.

It's a broad theme...

So some friends of mine are doing a quick little campaign about saving the world, and recently we just ran into an encounter with the Bacchae (FF p.18), nasty buggers who sing and dance and screw you over with their goddamn happiness. The way regular Bacchae tactics go is: They try to charm you or t...

I'm trying to get into a decent college right now (high school junior here!) and I want to look into summer internships. Right now, all I've got in my (Seattle, WA) area are Radio Internships and some stuff at the Science Center in Seattle. I'm not sure if any of you guys have experience with intern...

The "Realize The Inner Struggle" class feature is a bit strong, especially with the Immediate and Faster adjustments. Of the SRD creatures I looked up, about 50% could be taken out with a Swift, Move-equivalent, and Standard use of this move (dealing 14d6 per attack for 42d6 total, and not...

The third Dragon made (Bigode made one, and so did Hicks) to my knowledge. This one's pretty fast. HD: d12 BAB: Good Good Saves: Fort and Will Skills: Wasn't sure.... 1. Dragon, Breath Weapon 2. Alternate Form 3. Spells, Free Persist 1/day 4. SLA 5. Size Increase 6. 7. Free Persist 2/day 8. SLA 9. S...

er.... what's TNE?

I'm lookin' at those classes. Is that what you're thinking of for the Battle Magic? I can see it working, but I need a starting point..

Also:

Blue Battle Magic: Mayhaps sonic?

And I'm thinking the 4 types of Celestial are Aasimon (Angels/Devas), Eladrins, Guardinals, and Archons. Is that right?

Feats that don't do anything when you take them are never good. If an epic feat is balanced to take at 6th level, just make it onto a normal feat. If it isn't balanced to take at 6th level, it isn't balanced to take at 6th level . The reading portion of the SAT would like to talk to you... Please a...

you kids...

Since you're homebrewing anyways, just copy and paste the feat and then cut out the part that makes it require epic levels in the prereqs. If the feat is ok at level X, then it's ok at level X and prereqs have nothing to do with how ok at level X it is. I guess that makes sense; I could just put a ...

So I was optimizing an MoI Totemist, and I saw that he had an obvious lack of Chakra binds, which dissappointed me. I like Chakra Binds. I want more. But the only way to get more was to multiclass (ehhhh) or take the [Epic] feat that gave an extra Chakra Bind. For a level 9 character, the second is ...

Thread Necro here--but I was thinking about some way to get the Snowscaper to make weapons and attack on the same turn. I was wondering if I could just apply Quick Draw to it, or make a feat for it.

Which, I do believe, is a roundabout way of acquiescing. If you mean ceding this: Well, if we've got a playable race from lvl 1, and a prestige class for those Dryads and such... does that mean that said prestige classes will need to have more stuff on them to prevent them from being ridiculousy ov...

So I was looking at Planetouched races, and was thinking about their Lesser forms (with the alternate ruling from A Player's Guide to Faerun)... eep. Maybe it's just me, but some of the alternate ones are a little strong (though I was going off of forum posts and haven't found real data for most of ...
